GOAL: Grab one end of the power socket and bring it over to the other end socket to complete a connection!

Controls: A & D to walk LEFT and RIGHT

(when you pick up a wire spool) MOVE THE MOUSE to aim onto a hook and LEFT-CLICK to shoot your wire to grapple onto the hook.

S & W to climb UP and DOWN the wire (whilst hanging from a hook) 

SPACEBAR to jump (jumping can also detach yourself from a hook)

E to INTERACT with the outlets

BACKSPACE so you can RESET THE LEVEL if you ever get stuck on it.

Tips: The more wire spools you collect, the longer the wire gets that can reach hooks that are further away

More Tips: (While you are climbing a wire) Jump left/right & reattach onto the hook again to gain SWINGING MOMENTUM

That was pretty cool and fun to play!!

Really cool game and solid central mechanic.

It would be helpful to have in-game instructions about jumping off the cable and reattaching to build up swing momentum. Also would be nice to introduce this mechanic in a level without a giant pit that kills the player if they fail.

Would love to swing faster by swingin left and right, like one does in some games.
But that is jsut a suggestion, game was very nice to play :-)

Thank you very much!

This game is pure genius: from its very concept to its general design, and even to its chosen name. I'm glad I can have this gem in my personal game collection.
